Abstract: | A new application of one-dimensional photonic crystals containing negative-index materials is proposed as low-pass spatial
filters. Through optimizing the parameters of defect layer, a series of polarization-independent defect modes in the zero-average-index
gap of the photonic crystals are obtained with the increase of the incident angle. Based on these defect modes, polarization-independent
low-pass spatial filters are designed. The spatial-frequency bandwidth of the spatial filters can be adjusted by changing
the period number of the defective photonic crystal structures. In addition, the effect of the losses of negative-index materials
on the spatial filters is considered. |
